Slow internet

Recommended Posts

This week I contracted the winreanimator trojan onto my computer. I kept getting a red X in my system tray telling me to download some software. I used Malwarebytes Anti-malware, spybot-search & destroy and also created a HijackThis log. I'll go ahead and post it in the appropriate section of this site if I need to. The problem with my internet is that my download speeds are still the same as before about 150kb/s but when browsing from page to page it is extremely slow. I don't think the browser is the problem because I get the same results with Firefox, IE explorer, and Opera. I have DSL and and I don't know whether this is significant or not but my bytes sent compared to my bytes received is like 1 to 4. i.e 800,000 sent to 3,400,000 bytes received. I'm stumped about what to do next and I'll appreciate any help on this matter.
